Exceptional versus $τ$-exceptional sequences for the Auslander algebra of $K[x]/(x^t)$

Maximilian Kaipel

TL;DR

The paper investigates the Auslander algebra $\mathscr{A}_t$ of $K[x]/(x^t)$ and shows that every complete exceptional sequence in $\mathrm{mod}\,\mathscr{A}_t$ is a complete $\tau$-exceptional sequence, connected via an explicit bijection $\Phi$ between basic tilting modules and complete exceptional sequences. It then develops and compares mutation theories: left and right mutations of complete $\tau$-exceptional sequences are defined and shown to preserve completeness, and, whenever a mutation of a complete exceptional sequence remains in $\mathrm{mod}\,\mathscr{A}_t$, it coincides with the corresponding $\tau$-exceptional mutation. A central result is that $\Phi$ commutes with mutations, so tilting mutations lift to mutations of complete exceptional sequences and to $\tau$-exceptional mutations, aligning the classical tilting picture with the $\tau$-tilting framework for $\mathscr{A}_t$. An explicit $t=3$ example confirms the compatibility and elucidates the interplay among tilting modules, exceptional sequences, and $\tau$-exceptional sequences. These results bridge classical representation theory with $\tau$-tilting theory in a concrete and computable setting, clarifying mutation behavior for Auslander algebras.

Abstract

For $\mathcal{A}_t$, the Auslander algebra of $K[x]/(x^t)$, it is shown that every complete exceptional sequence of $\mathcal{A}_t$-modules is a complete $τ$-exceptional sequence. Moreover, it is established that the mutation of complete $τ$-exceptional sequences generalises the mutation of complete exceptional sequences in the category of $\mathcal{A}_t$-modules.

TL;DR

The paper investigates the Auslander algebra of and shows that every complete exceptional sequence in is a complete -exceptional sequence, connected via an explicit bijection between basic tilting modules and complete exceptional sequences. It then develops and compares mutation theories: left and right mutations of complete -exceptional sequences are defined and shown to preserve completeness, and, whenever a mutation of a complete exceptional sequence remains in , it coincides with the corresponding -exceptional mutation. A central result is that commutes with mutations, so tilting mutations lift to mutations of complete exceptional sequences and to -exceptional mutations, aligning the classical tilting picture with the -tilting framework for . An explicit example confirms the compatibility and elucidates the interplay among tilting modules, exceptional sequences, and -exceptional sequences. These results bridge classical representation theory with -tilting theory in a concrete and computable setting, clarifying mutation behavior for Auslander algebras.

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

(thm:excepistauexcep) Every complete exceptional sequence in $\mathop{\mathrm{mod}}\nolimits \mathscr{A}_t$ is a $\tau$-exceptional sequence. More precisely, there is an explicit bijection given by the bijection between TF-ordered $\tau$-tilting modules and complete $\tau$-exceptional sequences of MendozaTreffinger.
